New River

Intro verse 1 It took forever and a day for the canyons and coasts to erode away By the weight of the ocean's cyclical motion they swayed And though the eons may pass as slow as the sands of an hourglass Every grain that we've counted claims that even the mountains can change Let it come down, let it come down Let it make in you a new river! Let it come down, let it come down Let it make in you a new river! Interlude 1 verse 2 I know the winds from the south have the waves riled up like a hungry mouth And your stomach goes hollow at the thought that it could swallow you whole Well, it'll rain for forty days and nights, and nothing you do can slow the rising tides But the river takes her shape from every tempest she abides And like her, you'll be made new again Interlude 2 * Let it come down, let it come down * Let it make in you a new river! * Let it come down, let it come down Let it make in you a new river! Let it come down, let it come down Let it make in you a new river! Let it come down, let it come down Let it make in you a new river! x2 Let it come down, let it come down Let it make in you a new river! Let it come down, let it come down Let it make in you a new river! Outro
